Hi friend!
My Name is
Julie Iwaskiw
I am a nature-lover, an artist, a grandma of six and an advocate for mental health. I am all about getting out in nature, asking questions, being moved and changed, and sharing that with each other.
I believe that nature can fundamentally change us. Yes, it is that transformative!! It stokes our creativity, strengthens our relationships, and calms our inner-beings , all while giving us the fuel to impact out familes, friends, and those around us. The beauty and joy of the natural world have healing powers!
Discover the benefits of nature, art, and well-being for you and your family
I AM SO EXCITED TO SHARE WITH YOU
Changing the way you think about and experience the natural world
As an empty-nester and new Grandma, I decided to puruse my life-long passion for nature. I home-schooled for 23 years, which gave me tons of experience in education and lots of opporutunities to explore nature with my kids. (I have five). I am now a Master Naturalist, Certified Interpretive Guide, and a watercolor artist. All of this combined has given me the confidence to create a website and begin sharing with others.
Let me show you!
